Future Takata airbag recalls

As part of the compulsory recall of vehicles with Takata airbags, the list below shows vehicles that are not yet under active recall, but will be subject to future recalls by their manufacturers. This list will be updated from time to time.

If your vehicle is affected by a future recall, please ensure that the manufacturer has your current contact details. They will contact you when it is time to have your airbag replaced. We also recommend subscribing to receive updates about current and future recalls.

Vehicle manufacturers must initiate recalls of defective Takata airbag inflators as quickly as possible and schedule future recalls according to certain priority factors, which are:

geographical location of the vehicle in Australia, with first priority given to vehicles in areas of high heat and humidity

age of the vehicle, with first priority given to vehicles older than 6 years, and

location of the airbag inflator, with first priority given to driver side inflators.

The Takata recall has been staggered due to a global supply shortage of replacement airbag inflators. The ACCC is working with vehicle manufacturers to obtain the replacement parts as quickly as possible.

[2] Other factors, including second recall of a ‘like for like’ replacement

Due to a global supply shortage of replacement airbag inflators, some suppliers have used affected Takata airbag inflators as replacements (‘like for like’ replacement). Those airbags will be recalled and replaced with a non-Takata airbag inflator to ensure long term safety.
